2020-2021 SCHOOL PROFILE MISSION To inspire students to become innovative thinkers who communicate with intelligence and clarity, create with vision and purpose, and act with courage and compassion to confidently make a meaningful difference in the world. THE SCHOOL Carolina Day School is an independent, coeducational, non-sectarian, college preparatory day school serving grades PK through 12. We are dually accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and the Southern Association of Independent Schools. The School’s total enrollment, PK-12, for 2019-2020 is 558.

Maintenance of this environment requires that each community member understands and practices values such as honesty, self-discipline, self-respect, and respect for others.

CLASS RANK Due to the small size of our student body, class rank does not accurately reflect the academic success of our students. Therefore, Carolina Day School does not compute class rank. TESTING PROFILE Scores include our international students and are GRADING The average unweighted GPA of the Class of 2021 calculated using each student’s highest score in each section and superscored is 3.62 as of June 2020.

Carolina Day students who engaged with their learning during this time were able to maintain or improve the grades earned up to the end of March 2020. We issued traditional grading on a 0-100 scale. Carolina Day School has started the 2020-2021 school year in a hybrid model, with most of our students participating in a rotating in-class and remote model, with no more than 50% student population in our building at one time. Students will be graded using our traditional grading scale of 0-100. During this time the academic integrity of our courses and quality of instructional delivery have remained consistent with the Carolina Day School mission statement. ATHLETICS/CLUBS All 2020 interscholastic athletic activities were canceled from March through August. During this time, Carolina Day School student-athletes were prohibited from attending team practices or competitions. Limited athletic activities, under the guidance of our state athletic association, the North Carolina Independent Schools Athletic Association, and the Carolinas Athletic Association, our athletic conference, were approved to begin in mid-September. From mid-March through the end of the semester, the student body did not have the opportunity to engage in school-sponsored clubs. School-sponsored club activity resumed in mid-September 2020. COVID-19 UPDATES STANDARDIZED TESTING From mid-March 2020 through fall semester 2020, the class of 2021 has had limited, or no, access to the ACT, SAT, or SAT Subject Tests. Most test administrations have been canceled in our region. We have not only discouraged students from traveling long distances to take the exam, but also discouraged students from risking exposure to COVID-19 to take a standardized test.

Schuna Jr. Assistant Professor of Economics Assistant Professor of Kinesiology School of Public Policy School of Biological and Population Health Oregon State University Sciences 340 Bexell Hall Oregon State University Corvallis, OR 97331 118H Milam Hall Corvallis, OR 97331 Katherine Gunter Emily J. Tomayko Professor and Extension Specialist Assistant Professor of Research School of Biological and Population Health Center for American Indian and Rural Health Sciences Equity Oregon State University Montana State University 247 Hallie E. Ford Center 308 Reid Hall Corvallis, OR 97331 Bozeman, MT 59715 Abstract: Four-day school weeks are used in over 1,600 schools across 24 states, but little is known about adoption and implementation of these types of school calendars. Through examinations of school calendars and correspondence with school districts, we have compiled the most complete four-day school week dataset to date. We use this unique database to conduct a comprehensive analysis of four-day school week policy adoption and implementation. We find adoption of four-day school weeks is often financially-motivated, and has generally remained a small, rural district phenomenon. These schedules feature a day off once a week – often Friday – with increased time in school on each of the remaining four school days that, on average, is nearly an hour longer than the national average among five-day schools. Four-day school week schedules average only 148 yearly school days, yielding yearly time in school that is below the national average for five-day schools despite the longer school days.

In May, your institution was invited to customize these groups via a form on the Institution Interface. This report summarizes how your comparison groups were constructed and lists the institutions within them. NSSE comparison groups may be customized by (a) identifying specific institutions from the list of all 2018 and 2019 NSSE participants, (b) composing the group by selecting institutional characteristics, or (c) a combination of these. Institutions that chose not to customize received default groupsa that provide relevant comparisons for most institutions. Institutions that appended additional question sets in the form of Topical Modules or through consortium participation were also invited to customize comparison groups for those reports. The default for those groups was all other 2018 and 2019 institutions where the questions were administered.
